ISLAMABAD is host to the LEADERS IN ISLAMABAD BUSINESS SUMMIT.
The capital of Pakistan and the 9th largest city in the country, Islamabad is situated in the scenic Potohar Plateau, within the Islamabad Capital Territory. Its location at the crossroads of Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has made it a hub of cultural and commercial activity, with Margalla pass serving as the gateway between these two regions.
Built in the 1960s to replace Karachi as the capital, Islamabad is a well-planned city that was ranked as a Gamma World City in 2008. The city is home to some of the top-ranked universities in Pakistan and has the highest literacy rate in the country.
Islamabad's architecture is a beautiful blend of modernity and old Islamic and regional traditions, as seen in iconic landmarks like the Pakistan Monument and the Faisal Mosque - one of the largest in South Asia and the seventh largest mosque in the world.
With a diverse population that includes many migrants from other regions of Pakistan, Islamabad boasts a rich cultural and religious heritage that spans back centuries. We look forward to showcasing this vibrant city to attendees of LIIBS and providing an unforgettable experience.
